XmStringCreateLocalized man page

XmStringCreateLocalized creates a compound string containing the specified text in the current language environment. An identical compound string would result from the function XmStringCreate called with XmFONTLIST_DEFAULT_TAG explicitly as the tag component.

The function will allocate space to hold the returned compound string. The application is responsible for managing the allocated space. The application can recover the allocated space by calling XmStringFree.
